Describe the bug

repo_compare_html.sh is unable to compare RHEL_Beta_* repositories to Rocky_*_stg repositories because RHEL_Beta_* repositories cannot be accessed.


To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Clone this repository on a RHEL system with subscription.
  2. Attempt to run repo_compare_html.sh for a RHEL_Beta_* repository
  3. See error
[root@localhost repo_compare]# ./repo_compare_html.sh RHEL8_Beta_BaseOS Rocky8_BaseOS_stg

Expected behavior

repo_compare_html.sh should produce output similar to that found on the Rocky repocompare site.
